J.B. Pritzker runs away with Democratic nomination for governor

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

With decisive support throughout the state, J.B. Pritzker — the billionaire entrepreneur and philanthropist who put in more than $69 million of his own fortune into his gubernatorial campaign — has won the Democratic nomination.

With his lead too strong to be overcome by businessman Chris Kennedy and State Sen. Daniel Biss, D-Evanston, the race was called early. Pritzker was leading with 45 percent of the vote, followed by Biss with 26 percent, and Kennedy with 24 percent, with 95 percent of precincts reporting.
